Title:
Pulseaudio sinks nightmare to navigate
Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Both Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome create audio sinks which do not
have a unique label or icon. There is no way for the user to
distinguish between a video on a blog or website, a video on youtube ,
a video chat they are participating in or an advertisement.
Desired behavior would be to show the label of the tab as the sink
label and favicon of the tab as icon for sink.
This is important. People spend more time watching videos online and
communicating through the browser than they do using dedicated
applications on their machines. Fiddling with multiple sinks until you
come across the right one is horrible from a usability perspective.
Expecting Firefox upstream or Chrome upstream to resolve the issue by
themselves has not worked. Its 2015.
At the end of the day this bug doesn't effect their adoption but it does
affect pulseaudio and the platforms which use it.
